While Jennifer Aniston admits to being technically challenged, she’s still wise to when someone’s secretly snapping her photo.

“My favorite move is when people pretend that they’re on the phone,” Aniston, 39, says in next Sunday’sThe New York Times Magazine, “and they kind of dial and take the picture at the same time. You hope they’re doing it for themselves – that they’re not thinking, ‘I’m going to dine out on you.’”
Yet the actress also admits to being in awe of the tech-savvy. “I’m really computer illiterate,” she says. “When I see people on their BlackBerrys, working them like some girls work a hairdryer, I’m just stunned. People have sent me clips from FunnyOrDie.com or YouTube, but I never seek it out.”

So don’t expect the Friends star to be friend-ing you on Facebook anytime soon. Asked if she uses the online social network, Aniston replies,
“It’s not for me. I’d be opening myself up too much. I don’t want to sound like a complete innocent – I’ve looked at things, of course. But it’s such spewing. If I look at it, I’ll be affected. It’s like dancing with the devil.”
What does the star like about the Digital Age: computer Scrabble and Wii.
Mischa Barton was not a happy camper last night when she pulled up to Bardot, where Ryan Gosling was deejaying inside.
The actress was upset at the group of paparazzi gathered by the valet stand in the parking lot. “Are they allowed inside here?” a noticeably annoyed Barton asked the valet before leaving.
But our question is, shouldn’t she be glad people are still taking her picture? After all, she hasn’t done much majorly visible work since her O.C. days, except design headbands, smoke a little pot and rack up a DUI.
Amy Winehouse has been pretty quiet lately but she is back on the streets again and that means the paparazzi better be aware.
The troubled singer was spotted leaving her home in Camden, London, earlier today and didn’t take too kindly to the paparazzi, she took a swing at some of them before jumping in the back of a cab.
Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil has been released from jail, but he is reportedly going straight to a rehab center in Surrey.
While I wish she would get some help. I sure did miss the daily crazy.
Jessica Simpson’s rep has confirmed the singer’s hairstylist Ken Paves was rushed to the hospital early Sunday morning after being injured by paparazzi.
According to TMZ.com, as Simpson and her entourage were leaving L.A. eatery Madeo, they were mobbed by photographers. In the madness, one snapper hit Paves near his eye with a part of a camera, leaving him with blood trickling down his face. (Watch a video of the chaos).
Once Paves got in the car, Simpson’s driver took them to Cedar-Sinai hospital in West Hollywood, where she accompanied her friend inside the building. As of right now, no police reports have been filed.
While it’s no secret that the paparazzi go to great lengths to get photos of Hollywood stars, Ashley Tisdale wants the world to know that one actually broke into her house hoping to snap some photos.
“They broke in, they came into my home before,” the ‘High School Musical’ starlet said. Tisdale says the agencies and photographers “don’t want middle America to know this is what they do to try and get pictures.”
Tisdale says the photographer “broke in an entry and went into the hall and followed my stylist.” After a quick phone call, “The police were there and they [told me], ‘you could say it’s a robbery.’”
She goes on to say that she hasn’t seen that specific photographer again, but warns that “they go to an extreme for pictures.”
Two camouflaged photogs, who were discovered on the grounds of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s French chateau on Thursday, were reportedly given a beat down by the couple’s guards.
The local police captain said both sides filed legal complaints accusing the other of battery and causing injury.
The guards received doctors’ notes, allowing them four days off of work; the paparazzi did not. Let me guess, the photogs fought dirty?
The one photographer pictured above is Luc Goursolas, and rumored that the Brad and Angelina consider him a serious threat.
